Game Details - Girls Volleyball

The 4A runner-up a year ago, No. 2 seed Green Canyon took a big step toward trying to get over that thump this year with a very balanced performance in the quarterfinals at UVU. Coach Maddie Larsen was pleased how everyone on the team contributed in the 25-21, 25-18, 25-16 victory over No. 7 seed Payson. Green Canyon started a bit slow in the first set, but it didn’t take long for the Wolves to take over. “We started slow for sure. We took a minute to get going there, but once we got everybody involved it was a lot easier on the girls to stay on task and stay focused,” said Larsen. “I thought our setters did a really nice job of involving everyone in the offense which makes it better for us to have everyone involved.” Audrey White led Green Canyon with 12 kills, with Keira Birch adding nine kills. Middle blocker Jaylee Adams recorded six kills with a .357 hitting percentage. “It’s hard to rely on one person. I think when we can utilize everybody then it makes us a lot more deadly. I thought we passed well enough to utilize people and our setters did a nice job of keeping everyone involved,” said Larsen.
